Comfort food is allowed to be weird.

Take four slices of bread, two tomatoes, ketchup, A-1 steak sauce (original), black pepper, and granulated garlic. Instructions are per sandwich.

Apply ketchup to the bread, thoroughly. I mean, you want to just goop it on there like you were trying to use it as a hair gel substitute in a high school production of Grease. Once your bread is all ketchup-ed up, apply A-1 sauce. Just puddle it on one piece of bread, and then stick the bread together to spread it.

Put the black pepper on one slice of bread. Put the granulated garlic on the other slice of bread.

Slice a tomato as thinly as possible, and stack on one slice of bread. Close the sandwich. Repeat with the second sandwich. Now eat as quickly as possible, as your condiments have already begun to consume the bread.

Does not travel well.

glad you're feeling hungry and not talking about being dead in a corner anymore... :-)

I am mostly undead at this point. Next up, brain and tomato sandwiches.

That is obvious from the preceding phrase! :-)

It's sort of awesome. Get distracted for five minutes, your sandwich eats itself.

My tomato sandwiches are made with mayonnaise :)

Yay for being hungry enough to want comfort food!

My current comfort food is a blueberry coffee cake for which my darling husband REALLY needs to get the recipe from the woman who brought it to their bible study session.... (They sent pieces home with him. Yum.)

Definitely mugging for the recipe.

Ohyeah. They sent maybe 1/3 to 1/2 a cake's worth home with him (in little squares). They lasted...uh, two days, but only because I was trying to be good.

Seriously. Want. The recipe.

All my comfort food involves pasta.

I don't eat much starch. Not a diet thing -- a dislike thing. It's tragic.

I dislike lots of weird stuff other people love. Like cake.

Every birthday I disapoint someone by not wanting the cake they get me.

Your comfort food is... scary! I make my tomato sammiches like a good Southern girl - with Hellman's mayo, salt, pepper & a slice of cheese. Only REAL tomatoes need apply. We don't want those crunchy impostors.

seanan_mcguire

October 1 2008, 14:02:18 UTC 8 years ago

See, I'm allergic to mayo, and I don't eat cheese, so your comfort food is equally scary to me. ;) The fact that none of us are likely to mug one another for sandwiches strikes me as awesome.

You know, if you used that scary health bread that akawil's mother buys, you might be able to make a travel version, since it wouldn't soak through for at least two hours.
